I would not recommend to buy the game as of now, it's unfinished and you can tell it is, which is a shame

40 bucks for 9 heists that you can literally finish in 10 minutes, no melee weapon, a pretty basic gunplay that could have been better easily, and some features that I really don't like such as the fact you're obligated to play a weapon to unlock attachments on it,

Enemies are bullet sponges, my advice would be to play the revolver and constantly aim for the head because fortunately it two shots them but fr I found myself never using my AR because it's pointless
You need an insane amount of bullets for one guy + the reload is slow

You can trade hostages only for medpacks, no other resources at all while armor and ammunition boxes are available as a secondary item you can equip before a heist so ? Yeah idk + armor is more important than health it seems so..?

The UI is not as good as PD2 one, it's not as intuitive, which is a minor detail yes but still,

Also if you liked the customisation system and the freedom it offered in PD2, forget it for that new opus bc it's nearly non-existent,

The devs said that they would make the game more serious and strategic, yes it is but it has lost its fun, the reason why people likes Payday is because it doesn't take itself too seriously, here it does, and it's just empty so far

The game has potential though, it's just disappointing, they sold it as a meliorated version of Payday 2, it really isn't and I will probably come back to the ancient opus for now,

Wait for a few updates and buy it on sale, clearly not full price :/
